You can clone my emacs setup by running

source git_force_update.csh PATH/WHERE/YOU/WANT/TO/DOWNLOAD/THE/CONFIG

For example, you can run

source git_force_update.csh ~/.emacs.d

If a =​~/​.emacs.d= directory already exists, it will be =\cp -rf= ed to =~/​.emacs.dbkpauto=.

• Few setup files have setup done as per my personal tastes and needs:
  • setup-files/setup-misc.el
  • setup-files/setup-mode-line.el
  • setup-files/setup-registers.el
• If you want to change the default theme, font size, etc, you would want to edit setup-files/setup-visual.el
• Any of the variables or global minor modes set in my config can be overridden in setup-personal.el which you need to create in the directory pointed by the variable user-personal-directory. By default, this directory is =~/​.emacs.d/personal/​=.
• You can also choose to override certain variables in the very beginning of the init.el by customizing the variables in a setup-var-overrides.el file placed in user-personal-directory. You can refer to an example of this file here.
• setup-editing.el has interesting elisp snippets that I created+borrowed over time for functions related to general editing.

• Use of my minor mode modi-mode to enable my custom key-bindings. Doing so allows me to force override my bindings in all major and minor modes. If I ever need to try out the default emacs bindings, I can simply disable modi-mode by doing M-x modi-mode. It is enabled globally by default.
• Use of use-package in load all packages for faster load times.
• Use of bind-keys allows me to review my custom bindings in a single buffer by doing M-x describe-personal-keybindings.
• Certain packages will be loaded only if you have the associated applications installed.
  • ag
  • ctags
  • global (gtags)
  • git
  • matlab
  • aspell or hunspell
  • ps2pdf
  • xelatex

• Pack my whole emacs setup into a single org file.

I am looking forward to suggestions, corrections.

Thanks!
